minus-squareIzzyScissor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·7 months agoThe best models right now still hallucinate, so no matter how well trained, they’re still going to be awful. The specific message isn’t the issue. They have no object permanence and you can convince them of things by just repeating it to them enough times. But the worst part?
